Central Basin Circuit starts in front of the Gallery of Australian Design, Parkes, exploring the foreshore between Kings Avenue and Commonwealth Avenue. This bridge to bridge route is packed with landmarks like The Canadian Flagpole and can be a great way to get to know Eastern Canberra. If you want to enjoy the views of the city with the refreshing breeze of the Molonglo River hitting your face, this walk is a suitable choice. Stop anywhere near the river and observe the busy city, and maybe envy the simple lifestyle of the swans swimming before you. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
